It is really a bad idea, mainly because many programs assume /tmp is
local.

It is wanted on Mandriva (I did the relevant patch) because we set
TMPDIR variable by default to $HOME/tmp and users with home over NFS
logged at the same time on different systems could have problems with
gconf (the second login would not start a local gconf daemon, causing
many problems).
If you really want to share /tmp over NFS, on Mandriva system,
change /etc/profile.d/gconf.{sh,csh} to use /var/tmp instead of /tmp
(for instance).
